Definition

Digital divide, cyber bullying and computer addiction are the common problems that some people encountered.

 What do you know about it?

 What did you feel upon hearing of these dangers from using the internet?

WHAT IS IT?

Digital Divide (DD)

Are all members in the family having skills in digital manipulation? How your parent does enroll you in the school this year? In what way, you
communicate your family and friends afar from you?

Some of you may answers differently like not all members have the ability to use technology while other family members can,
some experience enrolling via online while others went to their respective barangay to get the enrolment forms and lastly, others
may be through letters or basic phone call while other can have video call as a form of communication. These are simple
scenarios that we experience of what we called digital divide.

Digital divide pertains to the social and economic imbalance of the opportunities to access to, use of or knowledge of information
and communication technology (ICTs). It is referring to a gap between sector in the community who can access, has the skills
and has desire to the internet and those who cannot. The unequal opportunity of the internet acquisition is caused by the
differences of skills, motivations and preferences of use based on category such as personal category (gender, age, race/ethnicity,
personality, intelligence and Health), positional category (education, occupation, household and nation) and the resources
category (economic, social and cultural capital) status of a person. The divides arise due to lack of knowledge on how to
manipulate the technology and understanding of its benefits as well and some cannot afford to access because the income is low.

We can able to overcome this phenomenon by:

1. lowering the cost of internet connection in the house

2.a law should be created to make all public places should have free internet access set by the government.

3. the different LGUs and NGOs should conduct a forum about the advantage of technology and how to use the
advance technology in rural areas.

4. the parents should be given with trainings related to technologybythe schools and libraries.

 4. Is your education, relationship of the family and friends or works affected by using the internet?

5. Is your behavior becoming moody, irritable or depressed if you cannot use the internet?

6. Are you escaping meal or sleep late in using the internet?
